Gabriele Gobbo has spent thirty years watching digital culture grow from a curiosity into the infrastructure of everyday life. He was there for most of it: the first websites, the early communities, the moment social media stopped being fun, the arrival of AI as something everyone suddenly had an opinion about.
He is the creator of Digitalosophy and the author of seven books. His work includes the concepts of Digital Sleepwalkers and Social Zombing, and the development of Strategic Metaprompting and the 3C Protocol for directing generative AI without outsourcing the thinking.
He is a Guest Lecturer in Cyber-Humanities at Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele in Milan, directs the PioneerAIO research lab, and hosts FvgTech, a weekly television program on digital culture. He is Vice President of the Digital Security Festival. He founded Italiamac in 1996, Italy's largest Apple community.
Based in Italy, not far from Venice.
